Hi, Im ditching my old VPS host for a new one. I intend on following the directions posted here . It looks rather straight forward but Im just wondering if there are any other tips or things to keep in mind? Thanks!
I have moved my yunohost from one vps to another recently. What I have done :
- Install debian 12 on the new server
- Mount /home/yunohost.backups folder of the old vps on /home/yunohost.backups on the new server (I have created it) using NFS
- Make a full backup
- Launch the yunohost install script on the new server
- When finished, make a yunohost restore
- Shutdown the old server
- Open the webadmin (using the ip of the new server)
- Update dns (I have ovh auto dns)
- Done
Thanks for the tips @jarod5001 but I’m not sure I’ll be able to figure out the NFS mount. Is it possible to still just copy my backup from my old VPS to the backup folder of the new vps then restore from that?
You can also copy the files from your old server under /home/yunohost.backup/archiv manually via scp to the new server to /home/yunohost.backup/archiv and then restore them there via the admin interface on the new server.
